“Stratus and NEC have a common history of success in helping customers simplify, protect, and automate their digitally transforming operations. Since 1981, Stratus has maintained an obsession-like focus on ensuring the availability of business-critical applications for customers globally. NEC has been a steadfast partner,” explained Dave Laurello, Chairman, President and CEO of Stratus. “Our roadmap brings together the best technology to further reduce the complexity and risk of the computing infrastructures that will be needed in the future, whether in a data center or an edge environment.”

As demands on digital operations continue to intensify, businesses will need more efficient and secure ways to consolidate software applications within single, fault tolerant platforms that run those applications continuously with no loss of data due to unplanned or planned downtime. Additionally, requirements will grow for application transparency, health monitoring, and simplified deployment, support, and maintenance, among other capabilities within enterprise, regional, and local data centers in industries such as financial services and telecommunications, as well as edge operations like Oil & Gas terminals, train stations, smart buildings, manufacturing floors, and retail stores.
